ABOUT Player’s Choice Award

New for this year, the Player’s Choice Award puts the power directly into the hands of the gaming community. Voted for by the public, this category celebrates the game that players themselves believe delivered the most outstanding experience. From innovation and gameplay to emotional impact and community connection, this award recognises excellence as judged by the people who matter most — the players.
Criteria – mobile, PC or console game which was released in 2025

If you or your brand would like to sponsor the MCV/DEVELOP Awards show itself, please reach out to Alex Boucher or Vanessa Joyce.
